RegisterFly Still Getting Hit

Comments (4) · March 7, 2007 at 5:00 am · Hot Web Topics

RegisterFly folks, I have an offer for you - but I will leave that for last.

You know you are in a bad spot when you are a domain name register and your Web site is down for any period of time. That is almost as bad as visiting a Web host, seeing it down, and then once it comes back up have a big “99.9% Uptime” logo flashing in your face.

If you want to hear some of my thoughts on what RegisterFly has gone through thus far, I would check out the Web Hosting Show from two weeks ago. The latest ‘bit of news to happen in their recent streak of bad luck is going offline for a little while. You can read all about the technical details at Netcraft. I am not sure if I feel more sorry for the RegisterFly company or the customers of RegisterFly.

Once source of news on this story I have been surprised by is ICANN. I never even knew they had a blog till somebody from the ICANN organization left me a comment yesterday via WebHostingShow.com. It is bookmarked, and is now one of my best friends when it comes to tracking all this RegisterFly trouble.

If anybody from RegisterFly’s side of things wants to have their side of the story told, I am offering you an open spot to do it on the Web Hosting Show podcast - the number one hosting podcast out there today. There is an open door for them to send me any audio statement they wish to send and I will play it for the world to hear. Now the only question is, will they take me up on it?

 

Proud of Lunarpages Blog

Over the past few weeks, it really has been an hour to be a small part of the Lunarpages team.

I am really happy with the way their blog is shapping up as well. Once just a place for their “master of marketing” Amy Armitage, it is now quickly becoming one of my favorite places to read (and write!). This goes way beyond just being a blog for a Web hosting company. They are putting together one heck of a writing team - and it shows.
